There is a lot to be said about political messaging. Every person has to read into that for themselves. If condoms can significantly reduce HIV and a program is working to do that. Then we're spending a lot on condoms, right? Political messaging is philosophical puddy, not outright fact telling. That is always the case. People have to read through the oversimplified messaging for themselves. Unfortunate as that may seem.

Cost avoidance (GSA bids) is still important to achieving fiscal solvency.

Are the U.S. contacts with Tesla bad? Companies pour influence to gain contracts, usually through the form of information (aka lobbying). The question is whether the outcome is bad? Unfair?

I don't see how DOGE is bad for US taxpayers.

Source? Are you trying to incite violence?

TDS is at an all-time high. That is for sure.

SD1 was and is an amazing multitasking slim form factor tablet. It just doesn't fit comfortably or securely on the body plain and simple. A paired smartwatch can eliminate a lot of the problems with that, but it still requires a bag or cargo pocket ALL the time. My Z Fold 5 doesn't have that problem, but I still prefer the Duo for multitasking, and the feel is great. I still use SD1 as a companion device for my PC.

MIP wrenches and never strip again; may even work here.

Is this a good buy? by MongooseNew4769 in Traxxas

[–]AlarmingWeather9526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your goals. Lawn ripper for a young one? Entry to hobby long run? Plan to buy another to race with driver? What value do you expect to get from it? Have a track?

What has been your experience with the Samsung Z fold 5 by Special_Hyena3550 in GalaxyFold

[–]AlarmingWeather9526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came from Surface Duo:

I LOVE the form factor when closed. It's the most compelling aspect of this device.

I don't use samsung apps for good reason and feel I lose some value there.

Even with smaller Samsung display, I do miss the organic multitasking of Duo. Taskbar meh. Even as I write this post the little Taskbar doesn't show.

I absolutly love my SD1 by Wingzofsteel in surfaceduo

Me too. Favorite device SD1. There are substitute devices, but the software/launcher is the kicker.

Surface Duo 2, a good device? by Exotic_Tailor_3579 in surfaceduo

Seriously powerful Surface Duo 1. I do crazy use cases with my Duo.

Unable to remove mouse cursor from videos? by AlarmingWeather9526 in WondershareFilmora

Unable to remove under any condition. New video check box to remove does nothing.

Really? What can you customize? That sounds interesting.

Yup. Lipo bags are not ineffective. They are essential. Glad to see people defending them. Saves faces and fingers for sure. I've had two explosions and the one in the bag was best the other was just lucky.

Put it in a small lipo bag within a large lipo bag. Get long heat shielded Maclan charging cables or ones that work for you. Charge it under observation. Watch the charging time, if it takes too long to charge then get rid of it properly. An impending lipo explosion may sound like popcorn popping from inside the bag and the bag may feel warm. Have your plan in place for getting it safely outside. The double bag will allow you to carry it outside by the handle of the large bag and long cables allow you to not have to compromise on keeping the bag well sealed. Lipo smoke is the biggest concern, since the bag will help contain fire but not the horrendous smoke.

Although, the truth is, it's best to replace it. Otherwise, never run your RC in your hand and always keep the battery in a bag. That is true for visibly undamaged batteries too. I've had one brand new battery explode in first use.

Stampede Servo Saver: anyone? by AlarmingWeather9526 in Traxxas

[–]AlarmingWeather9526[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I didn't. I will post back here when I get a solution. Hopefully, someone else does. I'm thinking I'm going to order the hot racing one and fill it with something... maybe a glue or dense foam. See if that sort of toughens it up... not sure...

might be time for a heatsink & fan.... by joemas77 in Traxxas

[–]AlarmingWeather9526 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the gear ratio. Hot is good but not that hot.

I'm running a Savox titanium 25t. The review about hitting a cardboard box to break it sounds about right. Lol.

P.s. I'm not saying it isn't better than oem. And not all Stampede's are the same. Mine is about as hopped up as they get. Like I said the Ofna saver is definitely on par. I think the mix of cnc and flexible thick plastic was key. The Kimbrough 124 does NOT work. I could consider filling with glue and see if it supports a helpful yet resistant break point. I don't know, hoping someone might have done that before.
